Can you think on a use case where we want somebody to be able to "drop"
media packages in an inbox and get them processed without further
intervention? Does it make sense for someone to have access to the inbox
but not the UI, or to have access to the inbox so that the material they
drop there is automatically processed without being previously revised?

I'm not saying it does not make sense, but, from my point of view, having a
"reviewer" with access to the UI sending the videos dropped in the inbox to
processing does sound like a good idea. It's a personal opinion, though,
maybe there are adopters who are interested in that type of behaviour, but
if they want to send a mediapackage directly to processing, they also have
the REST services.
